Video: Matt Lewis of Pocatello, Idaho

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 10:00:00 MST

You can’t usually find monkeys and palm trees in the high hills of Pocatello, Idaho, but you can fi nd them at 11-year-old Matt Lewis’s house. Matt is so good at making animals out of colored balloons that he was hired to make balloon animals at a party store. He is also planning to sell his colorful balloon creations at the state fair. Matt has to get really close to the balloons to see them because he is legally blind. This is because he has albinism, which means that he has no pigment (color) in his hair, eyes, or skin. Matt’s sister, Ellen (15), and brother Cameron (17) also have albinism.
